Saw this a few days ago, the man is good at what he does. And he's using it for good purpose too.

It seems we've got plenty of money to spend on drones, bombs, and spying, but none to spend on domestic needs. It's just so black-pilling. I've begun to feel as though nothing will get better unless somehow people will wake up and see what's really going on. But they won't. Instead they just absorb their programming and parrot the NPC mantra of "ORANGE MAN BAD!" because it makes them feel all righteous.

All the bitching about President Trump in the media is just counterproductive, and I think that's by design. People who focus their hate on straw men, such as the MSM has built of President Trump, are easily misled and unlikely to recognize the true threats to liberty.

I agree, it's clear the military-industrial-banking complex has the most control over our government of any group.

I think that framing is unlikely to be helpful when discussing your ideas with others outside your social sphere. I know SaidIt tries to accommodate so-called "conspiracy theories", but you won't persuade anyone who doesn't already believe. You have to build the case for the existence of such a thing, which entails a much longer discussion.

As for me, I don't need to accept this framing because it just doesn't matter. People network and exchange ideas. Ideas outside the increasingly narrow framing of the MSM get labeled "fringe", "conspiracy", "extreme" and such. The purpose of the labels is to provide shortcuts for normies so they can avoid thinking.

Looking back on this short exchange I feel I've deviated far afield from my original points of interest. I'll drop it here, unless you have more to add.

How shall I accept your lack of response?

Cool. Didn't mean to be impatient.

Life has no meaning without freedom.

Americans used to be able to work hard and keep what they earned. Now there is really no reason to work since everything is illegal and the 1% will end up with everything through taxes, forfeiture, fines, inflation, tariffs, subsidies, and fees.

Americans are just animals at this stage. We're being watched 24/7, NSA is wiretapping our phones, listening to our words, reading our emails, and recording our web history. The NSA has our pictures, knows our address, Social Security numbers, phone numbers, purchases, current location, plans, doctors, lawyers, and what we had for dinner yesterday. If you wrote a book, the NSA would read it before you published it.

The government wants to tell us what to do, what to think, where to live, how to live, what to wear, and what to eat. Saying you live in a free country with a straight face is difficult when everything is illegal.

Nothing will ever improve because the surveillance technology will always exist and become more powerful.

Colonists living under King George had much more freedom than Americans do today.

How did the Soviets survive? Why do North Koreans get up in the morning?

We have reached the point when Americans should just burn their driver licenses, SSN cards, passports, and birth certificates and stop being slaves. Everything has become a joke.

Before a battle, soldiers are told to think that they are already dead so they will be brave. Americans should have the same thinking when fighting for freedom. Americans have nothing to lose resisting tyranny except their chains. Americans must expect that they will need to spend some money, get arrested, and risk being killed. Freedom should be in the DNA of every American.

Americans might lose fighting the elites, but Americans must never give up and make tyranny easy to implement.
